an extra html/ directory being created in docs. Changes html/ to html/.

pkg/36007.
Bump PKGREVISION.
Main changes since 4.1.2:
Full virtual robot support ; you can now create 2 lists with the same name in
different virtual robots
Message topics : list messages can be tagged with topics. List owner defines
a set of topics for the list. List members can select topics and only
receive related messages.
Sympa is now VERP enabled
new return_path_suffix parameter in sympa.conf
new 'digest_max_size' list parameter. If a digest exceeds this limit, then
multiple messages are sent.
New set of web templates, CSS and XHTML compatible.
RSS channels are providing the following features :
* latest messages in list archives
* latest documents in web repository
* latest created mailing lists
* most active mailing lists
Also, lots of other small features, translations and bug fixes.
No need to bump PKGREVISION or something, this was harmless:
some directories were made twice while installing from pkgsrc (by do-install
target and by INSTALL script) and binary packages were safe because the
INSTALL script creates them.
Too many changes and bugfixes to list here, see installed file
${PREFIX}/share/doc/sympa/NEWS.
Highlights of package changes: use regular PREFIX, pervasive use of
bsd.pkg.install.mk framework, add dependencies on mhonarc package and
openssl, use bsd.options.mk framework to select MySQL or PostgreSQL support,
introduce SYMPA_VARBASE to select "/var" directory
(defaults to ${VARBASE}/sympa).
Take stewardship with previous maintainer blessing.
XXX Better startup script(s) than the ones I use should be provided, so
I'm not including them in this package.
